Got a Eddy RPM intake goin on the 440 and wondering if I need gaskets on top/bottom of the pan or at all,Ive heard both...anybody got a suggestion?
I do not, but I DO use sealer on BOTH SIDES in order to keep oil from making a mess.
What just around the ports?
What kind of sealer haha... we were about to throw ours on today, but it was so ugly just the plain color so we had to paint it first.
Mines pretty and shiney !
My self, for decades I only seal the front and rear valley pan rails. Maybe I have just been luck? :shruggy: I had one brass plated Just to make it pretty. and used over and over for about 10 years!

Yes, and I even go so far as to put some on the threads of the intake bolts, along the front and rear of block rails too.
I have never used the paper gaskets that come with the valley pan. I have used a thin layer of silicone on the front and back and around the ports and sometimes I use Indian head shellac around the ports. Just depends on what I can find on the work table first and if i'm bout out of silicone. ;D
